An Obsidian cancellation is almost better than an Obsidian release.

Obsidian have made some great games.. usually very buggy, but I think in every case their publisher has forced them to release their games, clearly before they're ready.

Almost every developer has publisher pressures so them consistently folding under the pressure confirms them as a so so developer.

After they cock-cobbled Kotor II I simply have no love loss for them anymore. Still, I'm all for them redeeming themselves...

They had a year for that game. ONE YEAR is nearly not enough to make a game even if it's a sequel. With two years KOTOR 2 would've been excellent you can tell.

wasn't this just announced like a month ago? And they're already canceling it?

Naw, the game was announced at least a year ago.
And its a shame they are canceling the game, would of been interesting to see how they'd handle an RPG based on the Aliens series.

Careful wording: They never state that the project is cancelled outright, they only say that they are no longer working on it.

Not that I have my hopes up; I can't imagine anyone else I'd trust to develop a decent Aliens RPG.

I'm shocked they would cancel an RPG based on a 25 year old movie, although didn't it sort of sound like a recipe for disaster?

It was unusually apt, so I think we can afford to give it a pass.

"Apt" the newest of the overly used fad words on the internet to make you sound smart. :) Not saying you aren't in particular, I'm just pointing out I see that word way too often these days online.

I think around 2006 "asinine" made the rounds pretty heavily. :P
